When the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah, Isaiah said to them, "Say to your master, 'Thus says the LORD: Do not be afraid because of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have reviled me. Behold, I will put a spirit in him, so that he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land, and I will make him fall by the sword in his own land.'"
And the LORD heard Hezekiah's cries of repentance and honored them by removing the threat to Judah.
Is it not time to stand in our assemblies and declare that the word of the LORD, God the Almighty must govern our lives? Can we not expect the same when we are willing to repent of our acceptance of the mores of the culture around us?
